Dr. Ron Chapman, director of the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and state health officer, warned consumers with soy and or wheat allergies not to eat Maxi Foods Flour Tortillas, 24-count, manufactured by Diana’s Mexican Food Products. People who have soy or wheat allergies risk life-threatening reactions.

Diana’s Mexican Food Products of Norwalk, California, is voluntarily recalling the Maxi Foods Flour Tortillas, 24-count, because they contain soy and wheat that is not declared on the product labels.
